Enes Mahmutović (born 22 May 1997) is a professional footballer who plays as a centre-back for Dutch Eredivisie club NAC Breda. Born in Kosovo, he plays for the Luxembourg national team.

Club career

[edit]

In the summer of 2014, Mahmutović signed his first professional senior contract with CS Fola Esch.[5][6]

On 19 May 2017, it was announced that he had joined Championship club Middlesbrough for an undisclosed fee.[7] Mahmutović made his debut for the club on 14 August 2018, in an EFL Cup tie with Notts County, scoring a headed goal in the 3–3 draw.[8] In doing so, he became the first Luxembourger in history to score a professional goal in English football.[9]

On 30 August 2018, Mahmutović joined League Two club Yeovil Town on loan until the end of the season.[10] His time at Yeovil Town was cut short on 31 December 2018, with Mahmutović returning early to Middlesbrough upon the opening of the January transfer window after only playing a limited role at the League Two side.[11]

On 1 July 2019, Mahmutović joined MVV Maastricht of the Dutch Eerste Divisie, going on to appear 16 times for the club across the season.[12]

Middlesbrough announced that Mahmutović had been released by the club on 28 June 2020.[13]

On 31 March 2022, Mahmutović signed a contract with Bulgarian club CSKA Sofia.[14] He left the team in June 2024, upon the expiration of his contract.[15]

On 29 July 2024, Mahmutović moved to NAC Breda in the Netherlands, signing a contract for two seasons with an option for third.[16]

International career

[edit]

Mahmutović was born in Peć, FR Yugoslavia to an ethnic Bosnian Muslim family, and moved to Luxembourg at a young age. He was eligible for Montenegro and Luxembourg internationally, as well as Kosovo or Serbia, his birthplace.[17] He made his international debut for Luxembourg on 13 November 2016, in a 1–3 loss to the Netherlands.[5]
